Are Any Rooms in Your Heart Off-Limits to God? - Love Worth Finding - October 30

October 30, 2023 – Are Any Rooms in Your Heart Off-Limits to God?
Ephesians 5:17-21
Sermon: 1213 How to Break Satan's Strongholds in Your Life

Pray Over This

“Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another in the fear of God.”
Ephesians 5:17-21

Ponder This

Be filled with the Spirit. There’s no place for the devil when you’re filled with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not some sort of a liquid with you as the jug, that’s not the idea. To be filled with the Spirit of God means there’s not one room in your life where God is off-limits. There’s not one closet He doesn’t have a key to. You are filled with the Spirit in your sex life, in your business life, in your political life, in your church life, in your social life, in the big things and the little things, in your money, in your exercise, in your sleep, in your eating, in your lying down, in your waking up. This is the heart we need to have: “Jesus, I give you the keys to it all; I am filled with Your Spirit.” When you’re filled with the Holy Spirit there’s no more room for Satan.

If there’s room for Satan, the Spirit is grieved, and you are not filled with the Spirit. Don’t try to repent until you’re honest and face your sin, don’t try to resist until you’ve repented, and don’t try to be filled until you resist Satan and yield to God’s blessed Holy Spirit.

• What areas of life have you submitted to God’s authority?
• In what areas of life have you struggled to give God authority? What needs to change?

Practice This

Pray and surrender to God the areas of life over which you have not given Him full control.
